Chapter 112 Chapter 112 I am truly unparalleled in the world...
The subsequent processing speed is very fast.
Before long, the café, which had been noisy due to the murder... no, the accidental death, fell silent again. Clearly, both the words and actions of the woman in the black suit proved one thing: this wasn't the first time Ayatsuji Yukito had disregarded regulations and acted without authorization.
The fact that she took the initiative to show herself at this time suggests that the woman is the one openly responsible for keeping an eye on Ayatsuji Yukito.
The commotion in the café stemmed from the deaths of two unfortunate men in accidents. Since they were "accidental deaths," the other equally unlucky customers present were naturally not involved in the matter and did not need to undergo questioning or taking statements like in a murder case. They were allowed to leave shortly afterward.
Of course, there was no gag order or requirement to keep quiet about what happened today... After all, it was truly a 100% accident, without any exaggeration. The man who was killed by the lamp ran up to the chandelier on his own initiative, while the other person who died was probably traumatized by the horrific scene, which caused him to suddenly fall ill.
Well... sigh, those two poor unlucky guys.
Knowing about Ayatsuji Yukito's special ability, Tsukino and Chiya knew what might happen when they arrived at the cafe, and they sighed absentmindedly to themselves.
Unfortunately, life is like that, and things rarely go as planned. People always subconsciously think that their future is very far away, but they don't know when an accident will suddenly happen.
However, at least Ayatsuji Yukito's terrifying ability to directly lock onto causality only works on criminals. So this story is actually telling us that it's best to avoid committing murder and arson.
Then, Tsukino and Chiya recalled Ouma Kokichi's identity as the evil leader, which he mentioned almost every day.
He paused subtly for a moment: "..." Well, although, this person should be fine too.
Before leaving, Tsukino and Chiya glanced at Ayatsuji Yukito one last time. The outwardly aloof man was listening to the woman in the suit mutterings, then moved his lips as if to say something, which completely stunned her, leaving her looking utterly dejected.
My gaze, hidden in the crowd, didn't attract much attention... Of course, if I had continued to look like that, the outcome might have been different.
Tsukino and Chiya left the cafe. Because the main door was wide open for easy entry and exit, he didn't hear the tinkling of the wind chimes this time.
Tsukino and Chiya's goal is very clear.
After leaving the café area, he headed straight for where Wang Ma Xiaoji was.
The purple-haired boy had finished his ice cream, but unfortunately, the melted cream was still dripping onto the back of his hand.
As Tsukino and Chiya approached, Ohma Kokichi was intently wiping away the sticky, unpleasant-feeling cream that had dripped onto his hands with a tissue.
Although Ouma Kokichi felt the shadow cast by someone's approach, he didn't seem surprised at all. After wiping his hands clean, he crumpled the tissue into a ball and then looked around.
Tsukino and Chiya offered a timely and thoughtful reminder: "There's a trash can not far across the street."
"But I really don't want to go to the other side. There are a lot of weird people secretly lurking there. As the evil mastermind, I should probably stay away from them, right?"
No, you clearly have the personality of someone who loves to watch the drama unfold.
While Tsukino and Chiya silently complained, they nodded and then asked, "So, Ohma, what's your opinion?"
"I heard there's an amusement park nearby," Wang Ma Xiaoji said cheerfully. "Let's go play together!"
*******
Of course there are trash cans in the amusement park.
For two students who are enjoying a pleasant holiday and have traveled from one city to another, it's perfectly normal to spend time in the city they've come to visit.
The two of them didn't spend much time meeting and making a decision. After quickly reaching a consensus, they went to the amusement park for an afternoon.
And then until now...
After leaving the amusement park, the two went to a nearby park. Perhaps because it was getting late, the small park, which was already quiet, became even sparsely populated.
Tsukino, Chiya, and Ohma Kokichi each sat on a swing.
The swing that Wang Ma Xiaoji was sitting on kept swaying, and the chain made a creaking and grinding sound.
The purple-haired boy swung the swing very high, not quite to the point of being almost parallel to the horizontal bar, but high enough to frighten some people who are afraid of heights.
Even if someone were to suggest, "Isn't this a bit dangerous?", Ouma Kokichi probably wouldn't care. Even though the swing is already flying very high, he still acts as if he is completely at ease, as if he was born to be an unrestrained and carefree bird.
His already somewhat unruly purple hair was blown even more tangled by the wind, but Wang Ma Xiaoji didn't seem to care. Instead, his hair swung even higher as it was being blown around.
This creates a striking contrast between Tsukino and Chiya, who are simply sitting quietly on the swing, yet it also appears incredibly harmonious.
Tsukino and Chiya casually draped their arms over the cold iron chains on either side. He stared blankly at the sandpit not far in front of the swing, seemingly oblivious to the figure that occasionally whizzed past and flew around beside him.
For someone who has just returned from an amusement park after spending almost an afternoon there and is still on holiday, such a short rest in the evening is perfectly normal and reasonable. But for two people with special characteristics, going to an amusement park and swinging on swings might be a bit too leisurely.
However, no one passing by knew what they possessed, and naturally no one accused them of neglecting their duties. Tsukino, Chiya, and Ohma Kokichi all felt there was nothing wrong with it, so they became even more relaxed and took it for granted.
As the chains of the swing next door creaked once again, Tsukino and Chiyo also caught a casual remark being tossed over.
"Isn't Kozuki curious about how I managed to find you?"
Tsukino and Chiya, who had been looking down at the sandpit ahead, looked up at him and turned to look over, adopting an attentive posture. However, Ohma Kokichi was still swinging enthusiastically and might not have noticed his expression.
Whether or not they noticed, Wang Ma Xiaoji's voice came right afterward.
"The answer to this question is obvious, isn't it?" Tsukino and Chiya looked at the swing beside them, whose movements had finally slowed down. "Because you are the mastermind of evil."
"Wow! That's amazing! I haven't seen you for a few days, and Kozuki Kazuya is already answering questions first!"
"Is this considered answering first...?"
"I think it counts, so let's leave it at that! But won't Kozuki ask me why I came here?"
"Isn't it because..."
The afterglow of the setting sun fell on Tsukino and Chiya's faces, softening their features. When Ohma Kokichi finally stopped swinging and looked over, he almost mistook the black-haired boy for someone smiling.
Do you want to see my tears when I'm alone?
"Ah, yes, it's a pity I came at the wrong time. I should have sneaked over to Kozuki to observe, but I didn't expect to be discovered by Kozuki beforehand."
Wang Ma Xiaoji began to sigh and lament in a pretentious manner.
"What a terrible miscalculation by the evil mastermind—this way, if I see my Kozukino beforehand, she will definitely be well-groomed and won't let me see her in tears."
"That's really bad."
"Yes, it's really bad news for me."
Wang Ma Xiaoji said with a sad expression.
"But even though I've already accepted the blow of bad news, I still want to bring good news to Kozuki... That's right, what I said before about being an 'evil mastermind' was all a lie. I'm actually the head of a charity organization, a truly wonderful person!"
Tsukino and Chiya selectively ignored the second half of his sentence: "What good news?"
"Tch, this is so boring."
Wang Ma Xiaoji pursed his lips, then took a deep breath.
"Okay, okay, listen carefully, here's what happened—"
...
…………
"I see." After listening to Wang Ma Xiaoji's explanation, Tsukino and Chiya nodded thoughtfully. "I understand."
Wang Ma Xiaoji immediately beamed: "Then tonight we'll—"
No, that won't do.
Very unusually, Tsukino and Chiya firmly rejected Ohma Kokichi.
"I have one more place I absolutely must go to tonight."
"Huh?"
The suggestion was abruptly interrupted, and Wang Ma Xiaoji's excited expression froze on his face before gradually fading away.
However, he did not seem annoyed by this; on the contrary, he gradually showed a different kind of interest.
"Hey, looks like something fun is about to happen again~"
******
Ayatsuji Yukito was very efficient.
Although they had secretly left a message at the coffee shop, Tsukino and Chiya thought they might not be able to see him so soon, considering that he was under close surveillance.
As a result, Ayatsuji Yukito came to the doll shop that very night.
This is a shop in Yokohama that specializes in selling all kinds of dolls and plush toys—including human figures, of course.
As they had seen him at the coffee shop, Ayatsuji Yukito was still dressed in his usual baseball cap and goggles. This made Tsukino and Chiya begin to doubt the competence of the officials. Without even disguising himself, how had they managed to get Ayatsuji Yukito to leave them behind and come here alone so easily?
...Okay, actually it's not that the officials weren't capable enough, but rather that Ayatsuji Yukito was too capable.
Tsukino and Chiya weren't curious about how Ayatsuji Yukito had managed all this; they just wanted to get to the point quickly... After all, Chiya knew he didn't have many opportunities to meet Ayatsuji Yukito alone.
The authorities likely have members with special abilities that could aid in finding people. Given their perception of Ayatsuji Yukito as a formidable weapon, they would probably spare no effort in using various abilities to locate the temporarily missing Ayatsuji.
However, it seems that Ayatsuji Yukito also has no intention of exchanging pleasantries.
"Speak."
The man who had left Qianye with the impression of being "difficult to get along with" spoke bluntly and coldly.
"About the doll you encountered."
